The Department of Health & Families (DHF) employs around 6000 staff, predominantly health professionals who deliver patient care and develop public health policy and programs in hospitals, remote health clinics, and other community health facilities throughout the NT. Their needs for training and development are diverse, and because of the distributed and remote nature of many of the facilities, delivery of training is complex. Current training methods are varied with some centralised services and limited eLearning capacity. Working collaboratively on the implementation of the eLearning strategy, the Library and the Learning and Development Division will support the goal of becoming a ‘learning organisation’. The Library’s challenge is to integrate its evidence-based resources with a Learning Management
System, and to develop training and physical facilities to support eLearning.
